About me
Perhaps it's low mood, anxiety, or a familiar pattern that keeps coming back — in your relationships, at work, or in how you see yourself. It's often hard to put into words, and that can leave you feeling quite alone with it.
I'm a psychotherapist working with adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, and struggles that don't always have a clear name.
I won't hand you advice or a checklist of tasks. Instead, we'll take the time to understand you — your story, your relationships, and the patterns that quietly shape how you live and connect with others, often without you even realizing it.
Our first session is unhurried. There's space to simply explore what's brought you here, and what you need. From there, we go at your pace — once or twice-weekly sessions, short-term or long-term therapy, in person or online.
If this feels like it speaks to you, I'd love to hear from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a psychodynamic psychotherapy member of the Severnside Institute for Psychotherapy. I am also a member of the Ukrainian Association for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy.
I started my training in Ukraine and completed it after my move to the UK.
I have had 8 years experience of working in counselling and psychotherapy with a wide variety of adult patients suffering in many different ways.
As well as English speaking I work with Ukrainian and Russian speaking people.
I have weekly supervision with Dr Frances Roper, a psychoanalyst registered with the BPC, ensuring my client work remains reflective, ethical, and confidential.
